I though the play calling stunk in the final minutes of the game and in OT. I can't be too upset, Xavier is ranked 18th, but this is a game we should have closed.

the only reason i could see repeatedly going to alterique is to hope he starts gaining some confidence when a shot finally falls... aside from that, how do u put the ball in his hands at the end of regulation with the game on the line?

 

[Jaybo]

Some lineups just make you wonder what Dan Hurley is thinking.

 

[WestHartHusk]

He learned and gave Bouk the ball. Also, by the measure of the game, that shot is a +1.

 

[UConn990411]

His in-game coaching left a lot to be desired tonight, and it cost the team a very winnable game.

Brutal.

 

[Giddyup5]

Why wasn’t akok in the game? His subs were terrible

 

[Rico444]

I don't understand why he kept Gilbert out there. I wouldn't be surprised if you told me he had 15 turnovers. And yet, there at the end, he's the one with the ball in his hands.

That's coaching malpractice.

 

[Shine33]

Yeah I don’t get why Akok wasn’t in. Thought he fouled out or something. Hopefully a good explanation

Exactly.
Perfect from the line is a start if it's gonna happen.

Almost too much to work with. He's figuring it out too.

We'll be better in 2020 (this season)

 

[TRest]

Once the ball is in ag’s hands you can’t get it out, I doubt Hurley wasn’t him attempting all those drives, but better sit his ass down if he isn’t listening.

 

[husky429]

He needs to reign in his upperclassmen. I hope looking at film after the tourney will help him realize that.

Carlton/Vital/Rique were 8/36 from the floor. 11 TOs. That is the game in regulation, right there.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Nowhere has he ever been a great Offensive coach.

 

[HuskyFich]

i mean Carlton taking 7 seconds to catch the ball and trying to dunk which would have put us up 7 with 40 seconds left. That on Hurley?.

vital going hero ball fade away 3 on the next possession on him too?

y’all expect a lot from the guy on the sidelines

Running the same play over and over that resulted in two guards that can’t finish at the rim and love to take hero ball 3’s with the shot running down is a problem.

Giving Gilbert the ball in late game situations time after time is a problem,
Not running Polley off double screens is a problem.

We do the weave hand off every play. The guards run off the bigs who can’t do anything but pass(hand off) that far from the hoop because they can’t dribble or don’t have the confidence to do so yet(Akok).we do that till the shot clock runs down and CV and AG are more than happy to try and score under those circumstances. Its predictable and snow.

Can we run Polley off a double like we did for Rip at least occasionally?

No I expect him to take both of them out when they do that in games. Now that we have some depth, hopefully they realize if they keep doing that they won’t play

Once again...
